are the preorder orcs one time use?

[Absolute Unit 731]

A big part of if I preorder this game is the special little bonuses. I assume the sword is good for a starter weapon. The preorder selling point to me was the Legendary orcs. That seemed like a helps the whole game thing. Then I read on the forum that they are one time use? Like do orcs you collect have permadeath or something? I would hazard to guess that Legendary orcs are something that would help throughout the whole game. Or are they truly just sort of temporary power ups?

Why do they just like die afterwards? Also whats the appeal to collecting orcs if they just leave after you get a use out of them?

Think of them like a free lootbox, first hits free, if you preorder :)

The are confirmed to be one time use.

In this game you have a single online account (which is linked to your steam ID, from what we can tell), which is used for your online actitivty including your garrison. It's likley like the 4 Orc's will be deposited into your garrion upon account creation (likley they have set up some way for your steam ID to tell you accoutn you have pre-ordered).

Once in your garrison they would then work like anyother Orc, you can deploy them into any region you want as soon reach an approprate point in the game.

But the fact that they just disappear afterwards makes me not want to even bother pre-ordering now. Like thats stupid. Who makes a collection, loot based economy type game with temporary rewards? Did they take notes from freaking Nexon?

Which is a real shame I do not approve of this at all, we should get them for every play through not just one.

Just dont pre-order, then you wont get ripped off. I did pre order the standard edition from GMG but i did not do it for any ingame bonuses, i did it because i got the game much cheaper than here on steam.

Its a pity that they are one-time use but if that's the reason for pre-ordering in the first place there is something even more wrong right there lol
